You can find Sidecar in the original Naked Palette. Though it has a sparkle finish, it doesn’t seem to have micro-gltiter, and the sparkle is fine and sparse–I didn’t have problems with it in the Naked Palette, and I didn’t have problems when I tried this shade (which is in the newer formulation). I didn’t see fall out during application or later on during wear. The color itself is fully pigmented, and it applies evenly and smoothly. It has a dense, buttery texture that is soft and easily blended on the skin. I wore it and had it last for full eight hours without fading or creasing, and there was some very light fading along the outer edge after nine hours.

Sidecar was my favourite colour in the original Naked palette except for the fallout, which I found really, really troublesome. I’m beyond delighted to read that it’s not a problem with this new formulation and I will most certainly be buying this if it comes to the “regular” Sephora outlets (as I imagine it will over time). Christine, do you know if the “new” formula in Maui Wowie is equally glitter fallout free?

I didn’t have problems with Sidecar in the original Naked palette – both seemed very un-sparkly in a way compared to UD’s normal glittery shades. I’ve tried Maui Wowie (in one of the recent palettes) and it’s less glittery but still glittery.

Sigh…I was hoping Maui Wowie would have undergone a significant change because it is such a beautiful colour and, at least in my colletion, it’s unique – the closest dupe I have without glitter is probably MAC Dalliance. I’ll have to give the new Sidecar a try instore. It’s funny – I know quite a few people who didn’t have trouble wit the original Sidecar and then others who, like me, ended up with glitter, even after application.

it’s so weird that some of us have massive problems with the “original” Sidecar – I mean MASSIVE to the point of not using it – and yet you and some others don’t have problems at all (I noticed this when I watched some tutorials when the palette first came out – some lucky folks could use it with no problems at all; I a envious!)

I had the same trouble with Sidecar, but found Maui Wowie in the Fun Palette re-release to be much more workable. It’s still best to pat it on, rather than sweep, but I don’t even use an especially sticky primer with it.

Interesting – the version in my Naked palette sure had micro-glitter, and the fallout was so intense I just can’t wear it (unless I sandwich it between a sticky primer and a lock). As much as I loved the color, it just wasn’t worth that much trouble.

This one looks very different, but I’ve got a dupe in Too Faced’s Natural at Night palette (After Hours, I think), so I may pass on this one.

So this has the same micro glitter as the Naked version? I really like the shade, but I have only used it a couple of times, and always regretted it because of the massive fallout. I definitely won’t be getting this then.

Okay, I’m confused now. She also said “I didn’t have problems with it in the Naked Palette”, but I do. Even though it’s not as bad as most of UD’s glitter shades, it still has some chunks in it, right? Is different enough from the Naked version that it’s worth getting?

I have the same problem that others here have, I get major glitter fallout from this shade in naked1. It is such a shame because its so pretty. I’m confused about your response here. Is this the same formula as the naked1 sidecar? So, if I had problems with it in the naked palette, would I have have problems with this as well?

how do you manage to get such pristine white background for your photographs… My white backgrounds either turn blue or grey! Any suggestion would really help, though I understand if its some trade secret and you don’t want to share.

I will have to check this out in person at some point; it’s one of my favorites out of the Naked Palette, but I got/get a pretty intense sparkle fallout from it. I could barely see the sparkle in the shadow, but when I applied it the little bits got everywhere. 🙁

is this color very similar to the one from the naked palette? i’ve purchased a couple of urban decay individual shadows in the new packaging and formulation but my buck definitely isn’t as warm as the one in the naked palette and midnight cowboy isn’t as gold as it is in another one of UD’s book of shadows so i’m a little hesitant to try more…

Sidecar is probably my favorite color in Naked 1, but it looks nothing like this! I actually went and swatched mine because it struck me as so different, and mine is significantly more grey and purple toned, and has tons of micro-glitter.

This probably has the biggest dent in it in my Naked palette. I’m not a big neutral wearer, though, so it’ll probably last me a good while yet.

On the microglitter thing: it’s there in the palette version, I can actually see specs of it in the original swatches on here. However, the glitter isn’t really apparent in the color unless it’s blended out, the shadow itself kind of outshines the glitter.

I can’t say I’ve had fallout issues with Sidecar, the glitter in it is much finer than that in all the Midnight Cowboy shades, or Maui Wowie, etc.
